The 2022 Albariño Cepas Vellas feels quite reductive and difficult to read on the nose. It took time to open up, but the palate showed the depth, balance and clout of the wine from minute one. It's dense and intense, with crystalline purity and great length, leaving a strong rocky sensation like the old vines really feed on the granite. 9,000 bottles were produced. It was bottled in August 2023.

Offers a beautiful, steady stream of blood orange, bitter cherry and raspberry coulis notes stitched finely with subtle rooibos tea, singed sandalwood, dried anise and savory details. Feels pinpoint in focus, with serious length on the finish thanks to the nicely buried mineral tension. Drink now through 2038. 586 cases made.

Black raspberries, wild strawberries, flowers, and peppery, Provençal notes all shine in the 2021 Vacqueyras Les 2 Monardes, a medium-bodied, forward, undeniably delicious Vacqueyras offering supple tannins and a good finish. It's rock solid and well worth enjoying over the coming 4-6 years or thereabouts.

Aromas of blackcurrants and black cherries with hints of crushed walnuts, grilled thyme, cocoa powder and graphite. It’s full-bodied with layers of ultra-fine, silky tannins that elegantly coat your palate, allowing the juicy and vibrant fruit to shine. Delicate and pristine, yet compact with lots of energy and power to uncover in the coming years. It lasts for minutes and is delicious now. The purity of fruit is really impressive. 60% cabernet sauvignon, 32% merlot, 4% cabernet franc and 4% petit verdot. 50% new oak 15% old oak and 35% concrete amphorae. Try after 2027.

An aromatic cloud of dark cherries and sage smudge hovers above leather and sweet fresh-cut hay notes. The flavors are just as compelling, with boysenberry and tart cherry flavors duking it out with black tea and bone broth. The Lutte's fresh mouthfeel and zippy acidity are mere bonuses.

The 2022 Gamay Noir Lutte is a total pleasure, opening with an earthy blend of crushed black raspberries, sage and white pepper. It's deeply textural with a silken wave of ripe red and blue fruit complicated by saline minerals and inner roses. This tapers off with tension, the chalky tannins leaving a tart raspberry tinge, adding to its youthful tension. This serious Gamay is currently demanding a short stay in the cellar.

The 2020 Intens Rosat was produced exclusively with Monastrell (as they couldn't use the Garnacha that was lost in that year of mildew) that macerated with the skins for six hours and aged in oak barrels for a short time. It was put to referment in bottle closed with a cork with concentrated organic must and was disgorged after 31 months. This is their youngest wine, and it has an intense pink color (a little paler than in earlier vintages). But going beyond the color, it has the subtle aromas from the red grape (translucent red berries) and is a gastronomical rosé with a balanced palate and abundant small bubbles. It has 11% alcohol, a pH of 3.21 and 4.5 grams of acidity from the year of rain and mildew (and Covid!) that delivered very low yields. Very tasty. 16,000 bottles produced.

"The NV Brut Rosé Grand Cru is a knockout. Rich and explosive, the Rosé literally races out of the glass. Readers will find a heady, voluptuous Champagne with gorgeous curves and tons of sheer appeal. Gatinois does excel with Rosé. This is a fine showing. Disgorged: April, 2020."

90 Wine Spectator

"Hints of slivered almond and pastry dough impart a subtle leesy edge to the flavors of poached peach and white cherry fruit, grated ginger and chalk found in this lip-smacking rosé Champagne with a lively bead. Disgorged June 2018. Drink now through 2023. 1,500 cases made, 75 cases imported."

A perfumed nose of raspberries, wild strawberries, sour cherries, sweet spices, caramel and dried flowers. Medium-bodied with ripe tannins. Round, ample and creamy with a rich, polished palate. Spicy finish. Drink or hold.

The 2021 Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico is lively, with crushed rocks and sea spray giving way to zests of lime. It’s pleasantly soft in nature, with crisp green apple and a building saline tension that mounts toward the close. A sweet and sour interplay of citrus lingers through the finale, leaving savory herbal nuances through the close. This child of a warm vintage has a great balance of rich fruit and brilliant acidity.
